He was in the 6th Commando Dorsetshire Regiment.
I have his service number and also the article in the Gazette in 1946 as he was awarded the Military Medal.
His nickname was Inky.
I need his death certificate but have no idea of the date of his birth but the year was 1919.
I have his marriage certificate to my mum in 1944.
He lived in Montepellier Vale, Blackheath, London.
Thank you so much.

Many, many thanks for this.
It's hard to say as I don't have his day and month of birth.
But I have his Army number.
And it matches on these searches.
And this is the only photo I have.
Another thin g I have is the year of his birth being 1919.

Once again, thank you.
Guy, on the marriage certificate it is dated 15th day of May, 1944 and he is down as being age 25.
I am so confused now.

Flasetta,
Please may I ask what your mother's name was?
Guy

Would you mind if I PMd you?

Yes, no problem.
